Re: Have you ever made your own garlic butter?
Don't cook it first, you will lose all the flavour.
I have the best garlic crusher in the world...it's from Ikea.
I crush a few cloves, then add the butter in a small dish, I also add a few garlic chives cut up small from the garden and then nuke it in the microwave until the butter is melted (or you can add some mixed herbs but that will change the flavour quite radically).
Once you've made a whole lot, you can roll it all up into a sausage when it starts solidifying and wrap it in clingfilm, put it in the freezer and then cut off slices when you want them.
I always make my own, it tastes so much better, oh and don't use that 'very lazy' garlic yuck yuck yuck, it's horrible!
